The Music Therapy Clinic
According to the American Music Therapy Association, music therapy is the clinical and evidence-based use of music intervention to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship.
Our Board-Certified Music Therapists are trained to work with a variety of diagnoses and chronic illnesses, such as traumatic brain injury, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Cerebral Palsy, Dementia, and various emotional disorders. We provide individual and group sessions in our Music Therapy Clinic, but can provide in-home therapy in certain circumstances.
Client goals are designed following a thorough music therapy assessment with a Board-Certified Music Therapist, and are individualized for each client. We currently serve the following: individuals on the Indiana Home and Community Based Services Waiver, private pay individuals, and group contracts in rehab, assisted living, medical, and school facilities.
PCS is also a university-affiliated internship and practicum site for students studying music therapy.
If you have questions about music therapy or would like intake information, please contact the Director of Music Therapy, Elayne Strecker at estrecker@pcs-counseling.org.
